I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Whenever I was looking for a daycare for my son, this was the only 3-star (highest) DHS rated daycare in Owasso. Now, I can understand why. The Children's Depot is a very clean facility - I am amazed at how often I see the teachers cleaning surfaces, floors and toys. My son has learned so much, too! For a while, he was signing things to my husband and me, and we were having to Google what my son was saying to us. Several times, I have decided that I wanted to teach him something, only to find out that he already knew the concept (left vs right, counting 1-10, ABCs).

Also, I have noticed that several daycares in the area require parents to bring 3-4 prefilled bottles for infants on a daily basis, which can end up being a lot of work for new parents. At Children's Depot, we were allowed to keep 3-4 bottles and formula/breast milk in the classroom. This was a HUGE help for my husband and me. Before we started at The Children's Depot, we were spending a minimum of 30 minutes each might washing bottles.

Overall, this daycare has been a big blessing for my family.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My son has been attending Children's Depot for approx 3 years. Everyone has been wonderful. My son started in the 2's program and is now in the pre-k program and we have never had any complaints about any of the teachers or the office staff. We are greeted by Jackie every morning with a smile and the teachers are awesome and always communicate well. Couldn't ask for a better place to take my son.

I have toured this provider's facility, but have not used its services

I am new to Owasso and I'm very DISGUSTED with the reaction I've gotten (from one daycare in particular) to my son with Down Syndrome! The Children's depot all but told me he wasn't welcome. The person who gave the tour (Jackie) was great until I told her about my 5 year old's disability! When she discovered that fact she she began to tell me how they don't have any children with downs and she's not sure how that would work with their program. What a DISGUSTING way to react to a child you've never even met, a child everyone falls in love with when they meet him! I will be submitting a grievance with The American Disabilities Act against this INSENSITIVE daycare!!
